In short: No problems experienced, good for beginners.In full: Having read past reviews I was a little concerned. However, no problems experienced on the day, timing chip worked fine (the normal thread through the laces), plenty of running room and a good mix of abilities. The starting of 5,10 and 20km runs at the same time didn't present any issues and had no impact on my finishing time. No much atmosphere, could easily be a training run. But if you want a flat, traffic free course and are new to running events this is ideal. For the facilities the price maybe a little expensive.Date of review: April 11, 2014
